Taken Of Pelham 123

The main reason the title sequence of Taken Of Pelham 123 inspired me is because of it's upbeatness, the scenes were quick and they were going along with the music perfectly. I also liked the idea of a 'bad guy' being able to walk around the subways as if he was an normal civilian.

Also, the sound effects were particularly good as they helped the viewer to get a sence that this is going to be an upbeat movie.
